Will it also work for submissions? I've noticed lately that the threads page is slow, but clicking on 'submissions' via the profile page is crushingly slow. If I'm away for a day or two it can make it difficult to check up on older threads, or find the link to share at some later date.

Why 'notifo', why not simply an email address ?
That's universal instead of a service that only works with the ipbone.
I haven't used this service before, but it's a good idea - thank you. Will it also work for submissions?

I do it because I find I often edit comments after posting them. Sometimes I have second thoughts and delete comments after saying something unwise.
That's a neat feature, but it may conflict with 'noprocrast', in that it will drive you mad if you can see that there are replies but you can't read them :) Why 'notifo', why not simply an email address ? That's universal instead of a service that only works with the ipbone.
